Lowest price I can find for this product. Decent review on Product Review website. Has anyone has any experience with this modem?

For the similar price, I would recommend this [deal] (https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/592291).
It is an AX era, AC routers will be phrased out sooner or later in the coming years as more and more new devices like mobile phone and computer coming with AX WiFi equipped.Agree, its AX time. should not waste money on AC routers.
What do you think about the TP-Link Archer AX20 AX1800 at $199. I probably prefer buying it from an Australian company for the convenience with warranty and support.
So what's the best nbn router to buy? I just exited Telstra and went to Superloop. But now I need a router :(
I am on the 250/25Mbps plan
I need at least 4 LAN ports, and a strong wifi.

Don't you have a Telstra smart modem?
yes, but it's from 2017 and the wifi signal doesn't reach my sons room when it is on the 5Ghz channel :(
So I am looking for something that will also be future proof.
Also, won't Telstra want their router back?
Future proof against?
Nah you keep it.
@pookie: Wi-Fi 6E is being looked at so you won't be future proofing against new Wi-Fi standards. Wi-Fi 6 is plenty fast assuming your device supports it.
Asus RT-AX86U and Asus RT-AX88U perform well.
@Twix: Ok, thanks. I was also looking at the TP-Link Archer AX11000 (see below link). Which would be better the Archer, or the Asus RT-AX88U?
@pookie: TP-Link Archer AX11000 also performs well. I don't think it's worth the extra coin over the Asus. Asus is mesh ready and the TP-Link isn't. Don't fall for the TP-Link gaming marketing.

Got the A6 (came free with Pineapple Net) and it has been fine.
Love the modern tarantula configuration although the $500+ price tag is not very Ozbargain
I have the ac1750 version of this router and I highly recommend it. Had mine for about 4 years and never missed a beat. I restart it every few months and that's it.
